-Wshadow=compatible-local causes one extra warning in postgres.c with
-DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES:
postgres.c: In function ‘pg_rewrite_query’:
postgres.c:818:37: warning: declaration of ‘query’ shadows a parameter [-Wshadow=compatible-local]
  818 |                         Query      *query = lfirst_node(Query, lc);
      |                                     ^~~~~
postgres.c:771:25: note: shadowed declaration is here
  771 | pg_rewrite_query(Query *query)
      |                  ~~~~~~~^~~~~

Something like the patch attached would deal with this one.
